He drove up this morning pure Odemwingie

Would love a cheeky surprise midfield signing but probably unlikely i'd guess

Look it's a ridiculous overpay but we're coming out of a very difficult situation with a proven PL goalscorer and one of the most promising strikers in Europe. Considering the hand we've been dealt it could be a lot worse.

Fucking hell

We've been absolutely done on the fee when you consider other transfers and the overall striker market. We've undoubtedly been put in a very difficult position by the player and his agent which has drove down the price, but it still feels like a massive capitulation to me. And if we don't get a replacement in... Christ.

Completely missed him moving to Mexico

Vardy to Cremona is definitely one of the most bizarre transfers of the summer but I'm here for it

Got an excellent reception from the away end as he was coming off the pitch

Another clown

I'll be gutted if we've relented at £130 million mind. But it will be a relief for it to be over.

They're potentially signing two strikers for 60 million. I still think this could happen.

The blokes a numpty but that line got me good like

Brighton are fucking weird. Get these oddball nerd driven clubs out of our league and bring Stoke and Blackburn back for fucks sake

Really hope we don't let him go unless there's another forward through the door.

Except against Milan usually

#27 ffs

Frattesi played as a #8 in a 4-3-3 at Sassuolo. Lower level than for a CL club admittedly.

The business between Chelsea and Brighton is just bizarre. Definitely something off about it all. Two clubs are different sides of the same shitty coin with their multi club bullshit as well.

Di Marzio is a good source for Inter yeah. I'd say there's likely something in it. But I imagine we're probably looking at a few potential midfielders still.

It says he's accepted personal terms and discussions have started/are progressing with Inter. No Google translation used!

Indeed. It finally seems like we're pushing at some open doors with transfers. Admittedly the end of the window helps with this.

Surely if Frattesi did come in Willock would be on the way out?

No. More energetic box-to-box #8, classic Eddie Howe midfielder. Good at chipping in with goals which we need from midfield.

Di Marzio saying we're pushing still for Frattesi.

Extremely frustrating that we produce a genuine quality local talent for the first time in forever and we've had to sell him.
